Illumination
Illumination.nctm.org offers many different math based activities that bring life to learning math. A new light is shed on fun and interactive ways to learn math and apply it to everyday life.
Since the Super Bowl is quickly approaching, this worksheet I found on Illumination is a fun and interactive way to incorporate a little math into students weekend "free time". The Super Bowl Scavenger Hunt is a worksheet that can be assigned in the classroom, printed from the computer at home, and completed as the student watches the Super Bowl. If the student is unable to watch, they may use online resources to obtain the information needed to fill out the worksheet and then turn it into class the following Monday.
This resource is enhancement because it is not require in the teacher's daily use, but can be incorporated to enhance the learning experience for students. It is a great website with different activities that apply and touch on many different math subjects and topics. The particular worksheet I selected is a fun way in which students will complete an assignment, but also apply math while watching the Super Bowl. Later in life they may reflect on this assignment and think "that was really cool, and I still remeber it to this day as I watch the Super Bowl!"
